End of the Silicon Technology • End of Moore’s law (~10 years) • Slowing down of Moore’s law • Limitation to silicon-based computing • Overheating and quantum mechanical effects gettyimages.ca • Uncertainty principle: You don’t know where the electron is
Quantum Computers • Replacement for classical computers theinquirer.net • Solve problems that are infeasible for classical computers • Simulate quantum environments • Factoring large integers • Combinatorial optimization problems • Major problem: Docoherence, noise, loss of information
